How CBT-I helps patients
Treatment works on the sleep habits and thoughts that keep patients awake.
A consistent sleep schedule and a plan for future setbacks help patients manage their sleep after treatment.
Your patient sees a Texas-licensed clinician with training in CBT-I.
We check benefits before the first appointment and bill accepted plans directly.
With the patient’s permission, our clinician shares treatment progress to help you coordinate their ongoing care.
CBT-I may be appropriate for adults with:
Patients can continue seeing their therapist while completing CBT-I. Our work focuses on insomnia and complements the care they already receive.
Treatment includes an individualized sleep schedule, strategies to reduce time awake in bed and help with sleep-related worry.

A score is not a diagnosis. Discuss the result and your sleep history with a licensed clinician. A referral to Texas Sleep Center does not require a particular score.

Patients may also schedule directly without a referral. Book an appointment.
The Texas scheduling team follows up with your patient, checks coverage and arranges an assessment.
The first visit is a 50-minute assessment of sleep history, previous treatment and current medications. Most patients then attend six to eight weekly follow-up appointments. A daily sleep diary guides changes to the sleep schedule, and sessions address the habits and worries that interfere with sleep.
With the patient’s permission, our clinician shares treatment progress to help you coordinate their ongoing care.
Most patients meet by video with a clinician licensed in Texas. A limited number of clinicians also offer in-person visits at our Dallas, Houston and Austin offices; availability is confirmed at booking. Patients must be in Texas during appointments.
